Heidi Murphy <br />Final Report to City of Pleasanton Library and Recreation Department <br />February 26, 2019 page 8 <br />individuals that are ADA qualified (18 years of age or older).", it could <br />instead read, "Paratransit is available to seniors age 70 and older, or a <br />person with a disability that is qualified by WHEELS Dial -A -Ride Staff as <br />eligible for their service and are 18 years of age or older." <br />The Department is already implementing.these recommendations, as of <br />the date of this final report. <br />8. Pleasanton Senior Center Code of Conduct <br />a. We suggest that person -first language is needed on Page 1 in guideline <br />#1. Instead of, "...disabled, adults of any age.", it should read, "individuals <br />with disabilities of all ages." <br />b. We suggest that person -first language is needed on Page 2 in guideline <br />#13. Instead of, "However, qualified participants with disabilities who <br />require modifications or aids in order to move within the facility or <br />participate in activities should speak with staff about an accommodation.", <br />it should instead state, "However, participants with disabilities who require <br />modifications or aids in order to move within the facility or participate in <br />activities should speak with staff about arranging such modification." This <br />is consistent with the language used in ADA title II, where reasonable <br />modifications, not accommodations, are to be made by the City. <br />9. The RADD RAP Summer 2016 June -August Edition (Summer 2016) <br />a. As there is no definition of "basic needs" in title II of the ADA, we suggest <br />that the City delete the language that requires a RADD participant that <br />needs assistance with basic needs to come to the program with a <br />caregiver. <br />b. Additionally, we suggest that the RADD materials note something like the <br />statement below: <br />"Reasonable modifications due to disability will be provided at no charge <br />to the.RADD participant or family." <br />10. RADD Program Brochure <br />a. No recommendations are necessary, as this is a compliant document. <br />11. . RADD Registration Form- Summer 2016 <br />a. No recommendations are necessary, as this is a compliant document. <br />12. ' RADD Consent and Directions to Staff for the Administration of Medicines <br />It is unclear as to what is required by the ADA regarding the administration of <br />prescription medicine. This is an evolving area of the law. <br />
